Tear Jerkers in Veronica Mars include:

• In the season 2 finale, Weevil almost graduates - then Sheriff Lamb shows up to arrest him. Weevil pleads for 10 minutes, so he can walk across the stage (that being his grandmother's dream) and Sheriff Lamb doesn't listen.
• Also in the season 2 finale, Cassidy committing suicide by jumping off the roof of the Neptune Grand. Okay, yeah, he was the Big Bad who killed a dozen or so people and raped a girl, but there's something unbearably tragic about his story (i.e.. he has a good Freudian Excuse). Especially this exchange:

Logan: Beaver, don't! Cassidy: My name is Cassidy! Logan: Cassidy, don't. Cassidy: Why not? Logan and Veronica are both speechless, unable to give him any reason to live Cassidy: That's what I thought. he jumps

• A season later Cassidy's brother finally finds himself having to deal with all this, in two different scenes that kinda break our hearts.
  • The scene with his father, where he asks why his father didn't come back to the US for Cassidy's funeral, and asks/screams "You ever think he's dead because of us? Or that he killed those people because of us?"
  • The scene with Logan, where he asks if Logan tried to stop Cassidy jumping, and talks about this time when he duct-taped his brother to his bike.
